I'll come right out with it, I'm not very good at this. Worse than that actually. Even with the braided copper stuff and all.
I keep detaching the thru hole circle thing from the board. I could spit when it happens.
I've watched an American lad desolder a Simpsons PCB on YouTube with astonishing ease using a 'Hakko 808'
This model of desoldering gun doesn't seem to be easily available. At least not this side of the pond.
Could anyone recommend one of these guns/stations/tools easily available in the UK please ?
I already have a pretty good soldering station (I know - pathetic - look at me - I've got a great soldering iron) so I don't want one of those complete packages.
